Medium launches Index, a publication about work

Jean-Luc Bouchard, a senior editor at business publication Marker, writes about Medium’s new publication, Index, which will focus on work.

Bouchard writes, “It’s no wonder work is messy. Humans are incurably messy, and it’s impossible to separate the human element from work. That’s what Index is about: creating a home for the voices, experiences, and real people behind jobs and careers of all kinds.

“At Index, we’ll be digging into the most pressing issues surrounding modern work, including identity, representation, and support in the workplace, as well as remote work, the future of work, leadership, work culture, entrepreneurship, work-life tension, and navigating an ever-shifting economic landscape. We’ll be publishing missives from the professional front lines, as well as personal accounts of successes, failures, and lessons learned, with wisdom and advice ready to be passed on. Most of all, you can expect to go behind the curtain of careers spanning the full spectrum of work: execs from the C-suite, entrepreneurs fundraising their first or fifth company, and middle managers; essential workers, gig workers, workers whose jobs have been upturned by the pandemic; and folks who are getting their start or just starting over.”
